I still struggle with these things being _too_ good at generating code. They have a tendency to add abstractions, classes, wrappers, factories, builders to things that didn't really need all that. I find they spit out 6 files worth of code for something that really only needed 2-3 and I'm spending time going back through simplifying.

There are times those extra layers are worth it but it seems LLMs have a bias to add them prematurely and overcomplicate things. You then end up with extra complexity you didn't need.
